One character in this work refers to her spit as her "spray of diamonds" and tells another character that she is loved "like a bidet." That character declares that she should wear white to mourn like a queen and if necessary will follow her lover to Devil's Island. One character exclaims, "Those gloves! Those eternal gloves!" at the beginning of this work, and a recurring dispute in this work arises over the affection of a milkman. A murder plot is foiled in this play when the target notices that the phone is off the hook, which distracts her from drinking a cup of drugged tea that later causes the death of another character. Two characters in this play are referred to as "the distorting mirrors of respectable society," while a third is jailed as a result of a letter written by Claire. Much of the play consists of games in which Claire and Solange adopt the roles of madame and servant, and Claire's death at the end symbolizes the triumph of the titular profession. For 10 points name this play by Jean Genet.
